The change forms affected five scorecards and resulted in no change to the payout.The comparison of actual year to date figures for September 2013 for all the measures on the strategic business unit and business unit scorecards noted one exception related to the Nuclear Power Group's Equipment Reliability measure and did not result in a change to the payout. The measures on the strategic business unit and business unit scorecards agreed with the respective supporting documentation provided.A comparison of the actual year to date figures for the incentivized TVA Corporate balanced scorecard measures to the definition sheets noted one exception related to the Total Corporate Spend measure and did not result in a change to the payout.
